Hello! I’m Maddy Pico, and I am a motivated student from Cincinnati, Ohio who is entering my first year at The Ohio State University. I am majoring in Biology and plan on attending Medical School after completing my Bachelor’s degree at Ohio State. During high school, I enjoyed involving myself in the community and was inducted as a member of National Honors Society in my sophomore year. I was also an active member of Student Council at my school, serving as Vice President my senior year and Class Representative as a junior. I also participated in various clubs including ski club, yoga club, and life club while staying active through cross country and rowing. Although I enjoyed being involved in high school, my true passion lies within the realm of service. After four mission trips to Tennessee and New Orleans I decided to venture out of my comfort zone during my senior year and take a medical mission trip to Honduras. The trip equipped me with medical skills as well as a new desire to incorporate my passion for service with my interest in medicine. I desire to develop my involvement in medicine through volunteer opportunities, research, or a career in the field.
